The theory of solar cells explains the process by which light energy in photons is converted into electric current when the photons strike a suitable ... more

The magnetic field generated by the electric current, around a straight wire, is related to the electric current and the distance “r” from the ... more

A rotary variable differential transformer (RVDT) is a type of electrical transformer used for measuring angular ... more

In physics and engineering the quality factor or Q factor is a dimensionless parameter that describes how under-damped an oscillator or resonator is, or ... more

The power factor of an AC electrical power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load, to the apparent power in the circuit. In a ... more

A supercapacitor (SC) (sometimes ultracapacitor, formerly electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC)) is a high-capacity ... more

It is defined as the peak energy stored in the circuit divided by the average energy dissipated in it per cycle at resonance; Q factor is directly ... more

Flux is two separate simple and ubiquitous concepts throughout physics and applied mathematics. Within a discipline, the term is generally used ... more

Electrical resistivity (also known as resistivity, specific electrical resistance, or volume resistivity) is an intrinsic property that quantifies how ... more

The Townsend discharge is a gas ionization process where free electrons, accelerated by a sufficiently strong electric field, give rise to electrical ... more
